Thousands Sign Petition to Stop Starbucks from Opening According to reports, a Starbucks could soon be coming to Yosemite National Park.
The park’s concessionaire, Yosemite Hospitality (a division of Aramark), is working with the global coffee chain to begin selling Starbucks coffee in the food court at Yosemite Valley Lodge.
The space is slated to open this spring and serve soups, sandwiches, salads and, you guessed it, coffee.
“And this is just one of the many improvements we will be making in coming years.” Or is it?
“Multinational corporations have no place in our National Parks.
People all over the country — and the world, for that matter — are concerned about the sort of example this will set for future decisions in Yosemite, as well as other national parks around the nation.
This could start a trend that has already seen the introduction of corporate sponsors like Budweiser, REI and Subaru for the NPS.” What Are the Possible Solutions?
While there’s clearly animosity toward Starbucks because of the fact that it represents “Corporate America,” Aramark says Starbucks has “a long track record of and deep commitment to social and environmental impact, which we believe will benefit Yosemite National Park.” While it’s possible that the Starbucks plan has already been tabled for good — online job listings were recently removed — there’s actually a case to be made that Starbucks could be better than the alternative.
There’s still progress to be made in this area, but it could be done and could serve as an example for all other stores.
What solutions would you suggest?
